‘Watermelon head’: Trump trolls Democratic Sen Schiff

by April 9, 2025
written by April 9, 2025

Sen. Adam Schiff fired back late Tuesday after President Donald Trump mocked the California Democrat during a black-tie Republican dinner in Washington, D.C.

‘The President of the United States seems oddly focused on me,’ Schiff posted after footage of Trump’s jokes made the rounds.

‘Shouldn’t he be focused on the economy he’s crashing?’ he wrote.

During the event hosted by the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) – the House Republicans’ campaign arm – Trump wove in a few insults about the Boston-born Angeleno’s appearance into a verbal indictment of his role in the 2016 Russia collusion investigation.

‘Adam ‘Schifty’ Schiff – can you believe this guy?’ Trump said. ‘He’s got the smallest neck I’ve ever seen – and the biggest head: We call him Watermelon-Head.’ Trump went on to ruminate about how Schiff’s ‘big fat face’ could ‘stand on a neck’ the size of the president’s finger. 

‘It’s the weirdest thing – it’s a mystery; no one can understand it.’

Trump went on to call Schiff ‘one of the most dishonest human beings I’ve ever seen,’ and wondered aloud how people like Schiff could be able to run for office.

‘He was in charge of the fake witch hunt – with ‘Russia, Russia, Russia’ – it was a made-up story,’ he said, playing off the ‘Brady Bunch’ line ‘Marsha, Marsha, Marsha.’

In 2020, Schiff managed the House’s impeachment probe into Trump, leading off his opening remarks that January by comparing former Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton’s 1792 warning to then-President George Washington about future American leaders who would rise to the executive ‘despotic in [their] ordinary demeanor.’

‘When a man unprincipled in private life desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents, having the advantage of military habits… known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty—when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity—to join in the cry of danger to liberty—to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government & bringing it under suspicion—to flatter and fall in with all the nonsense of the zealots of the day—It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may ‘ride the storm and direct the whirlwind,’ Schiff said at the time.

Since then, he and Trump have often traded criticisms, with Trump also referring to him in the past as a ‘structural marvel,’ with an appearance like a ‘finger on a basketball.’

In October, Trump compared Schiff to the ‘enemy from within’ and called him a ‘sleazebag’ on FOX Business before lamenting that the Democrat would likely defeat former MLB star Steve Garvey for California’s open U.S. Senate seat.

For his part, Schiff has also clapped back at Republicans for their criticisms – responding in July to a report that now-Vice President JD Vance had lamented campaign name-calling after Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called the GOP ticket ‘weird.’

‘Shifty Schiff, pencil neck and watermelon head, would like a word, JD,’ Schiff responded at the time on Facebook.

Fox News Digital reached out to Schiff for additional comment but did not immediately hear back.
